Pera presents an artistic expression with fine arts

ISTANBUL - Hürriyet Daily News

Istanbul’s Pera Museum is presenting a new exhibition of projects from fine arts students at İzmir’s Dokuz Eylül University. The school’s fine arts faculty, the first to be established in Turkey four decades ago, consists of a wide range of departments. The faculty aims to create a model of education whereby theory and practice, the traditional and the contemporary, the pioneering and the conceptual coincide in harmony. The exhibition “Beyond Experience,” composed of selected works by young artists and designers from the faculty, seeks to establish itself as a foundation for aesthetic experience through a plethora of modes of self-expression, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, installation, stage design, graphic design, photography and film. The exhibition will continue until Sept. 30.
